Buffalo Wings & Rings is planning a big expansion in Cincinnati. Two franchisees are building new locations and hope to add even more in the future.

Si Rose, who already owns one Ohio location, will open his West Chester restaurant next year, while John Gerbus will open his second in Liberty Township next month. Each new location will bring more than 70 jobs to its market.

Both franchisees are excited to open in booming areas and keep growing from here. Rose says he hopes to open two more restaurants on the West and East Side. Gerbus and his business partner, Todd Fetter, will look for real estate along Interstate 75.

The new Cincinnati restaurants mark the ninth and 10th locations in the Buffalo Wing & Rings home market.
